Scapbooking ABC's with Dea Challenge 1

Hello everyone!

A new challenge just started over at "Scrapbooking ABC's with Dea"

Come on over and join in the fun!!!

I have decided to make a recipe binder and create a scrapbook page for each recipe.

The theme for this month is "Apples or Autumn or both"

I created a scrapbook page for an Apple Butter Recipe.

I created my background paper using one of my images from my Etsy Store called "Apples in Basket". I used Photoshop to duplicate my image once I colored it. All of my images are hand drawn by me and colored using Chameleon Pens and Photoshop.

I am using 8.5" x 11" paper for my base and once I have enough recipes I will put each one in a plastic sleeve, organize them and put into a binder. I hope you like my creation...

It's time for a new challenge over at "Pattie's Creations" and the theme for this month is 

BEACH/UNDER THE SEA

Come on over to our challenge and join in the fun! There is a FREEBIE if you need one that coincides with our theme...

I used my image called "Sea Horse Love"

You can purchase this image over at my Etsy Store...

I colored the image using Photoshop and then fussy cut another image and used glue dots to adhere it to the card. This gives the image some dimension.

I designed my own papers in Photoshop and created the frame around the Sea Horses. I love using Photoshop because you can create unique images to use in crafting and card making. To finish my card I added some Stickles glitter glue to the bubbles and in other areas.

Thanks

Challenge 159 at Pattie's Creations Design Challenge

We have a new challenge at Pattie's Creations Design Challenge that I run. This new challenge has a theme called Weddings.
I decided to use my image called "Wedding Cake" that you can purchase at my Etsy Store.

I used white card stock as my base and then used one of my Cuttlebug embossing folders to give it some texture. I used Photoshop to color my image called "Wedding Cake". I used a very pale blue for the cake and two different colors of blue for the flowers on the cake.
I added a sentiment that I cut out using one of my Spellbinders dies and my Grand Calibur machine.
Some flowers and leaves, along with rhinestones and pearls completed my creation. I hope you like it!!!
